RE: Crowne at Old Town North, Minor Amendment 1
Dear Clay
My client, Crowne Partners, would like to proposed a minor amendment to the approved preliminary de-
velopment plans to change the locations of the covered bike parking.
The plan, approved by the planning and zoning board on June 15, 2017 provides for 284 bikes to be
stored on patios and balconies of the majority of the units, with an additional 39 bikes to be stored in the
garages of the townhouse units, for a total of 323 covered spaces, exceeding the required amount of 318
spaces.
To better meet the intent of the Land Use Code 3.2.2 (C)(4) Bicycle Facilities, Crowne is instead propos-
ing to install bike racks in 15 locations within the multi-family buildings. These locations are in close prox-
imity to the building entrances, and are all located on the first floor of the structures. In addition we will
provide bike storage in all of the multi-family garages (not previously counted), and finally, we will convert
three garages to bike storage facilities. The storage in the townhouse garages would be unchanged.
The revised bike parking charts would be as follows:
Required Bike Parking
529 Bedrooms 529 bike parking spaces
60% Covered 318 spaces
40% Fixed 211 spaces
Provided Bike Parking
Internal Building Bike Racks 135 spaces (15 racks, 9 bikes per rack)
Bike Garage (small) 60 (30 per garage, 2 garages))
Bike Garage (large) 38 (38 per garage (1 garage))
Internal MF Building Garages 36 (1 per garage)
Internal MF Building Garages 10 (2 per garage, assigned to 2 and/or 3 bedroom units)
Townhome Garages 39 (3 per garage)
Total covered 318
Fixed 216 (24 racks, 9 per rack)
TOTAL 534 spaces
